Bollywood Storm: Book I: New York

Bollywood Storm is a lyrical and mystical murder mystery, set in Bollywood-style. The mazza of this story unfolds in two Books, spanning two continents

Elanna Forsythe George is a Boston born, New York forensic scientist who only takes on cold cases. Stone cold dead cases. She solves mysteries in unusual ways with her accidentally acquired, para-mystical abilities. Her cases come to her a few years after high-powered mainstream investigations, police and legal proceedings have all failed, and there's a dead end. But she doesn't take every case.

Book I: New York
Elanna is hired by the Bollywood starlet, Simryn Gill, to reopen the case of Rajesh Sharma, a Bollywood director who died, supposedly from cardiac arrest, two years previous. Although it appears a simple heart attack, there is no drama, no gossip, and no controversy anywhere in the Bollywood media. Somewhere, in that odd conspicuous silence, Elanna smells a big rat.
